    In The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls, the family endures a lot of hardships, one of which includes moving from place to place. They hardly stayed anywhere for more than a week, and moved more times than they could count to avoid the law and payments. Jeannette usually had a hard time making friends, so it would have been difficult for her. They eventually stopped the constant relocating, and settled in Welch, West Virginia. Moving was always one of the hardest things for me to do as I was growing up.…

    The experiences in the Biology 230 course will certainly continue to influence me in my understand of and how I approach topics in following biology and science courses. The reason why I say this is that the process that information is taught in the lecture course was a bit different from how some other courses would normally be taught. Comparing this course to previously biology and chemistry courses, this course focuses on the why rather than what is the answer. This certainly helps as it makes up need to find a connection to why some is the way it is, which benefits many of the different topics that are taught through the course.…

    All four of the articles show the disparities that exist within the work environment. “The Glass Escalator” by Christine L. Williams showed how men not only face a huge advantage in female dominated careers but also discrimination. “The Global Woman” by Barbara Ehrenreich and Arlie Russell Hochschild tell how many immigrant women are leaving their home countries at alarming rates to take on domestic jobs elsewhere. “The Globetrotting Sneaker” by Cynthia Enloe is about how many companies benefit from globalization, and use it as a tool to dehumanize and mistreat women in foreign countries. Lastly, “Fort Bragg: Command” by Jefferey McGowan details how biased the military was, and still is, against homosexuals, especially during the “Don’t…

    "Jeanine's eyes turn into glass." This metaphor is used the moment Jeanine dies after Tori shoots her. It is notable not only because Jeanine has died, but also because of the choice of the word "glass." Glass is fragile and easily shattered, and comparing Jeanine to something like glass emphasizes Jeanine's own fragility, too. She put on a facade of strength and impenetrability, but now at last, she has broken—just like glass.…

    For instance, Claesz, in trying to push his moral rather than the pure sentiment of art for art’s sake, sticks to local color and a realistic depiction of all the elements in his Still Life with a Skull and a Writing Quill. Like using simple words to tell various aesops, this plain decision does not distract from the story of futility Claesz tells in his painting, and can appeal to the widest range of people purely by faithfully presenting real objects they can identify. He is not, however, completely ignorant to the power which color can wield, as the highlighted area of the skull has a powerful contrast with the dark background, again serving to make Still Life with a Skull and a Writing Quill yet more high-impact, so it can more efficiently deliver its message. On the other hand, it is extremely difficult to discern whether Pablo Picasso used local color in Still Life with a Bottle of Rum, as his integration of the subject with the background is so absolute as to be unable to tell which plane is which part of the image. His overall color scheme is extremely muted, working only in browns and tones of black, white, and gray.…

    Sigmund Freud, a psychologist and sociologist in the 20th century, believed that self-description is rarely a true representation of one’s self because real motives are disguised by conscious thoughts preventing honesty (McLeod). People are inclined to present themselves as more interesting, and in turn believe others are naturally just as amusing. For example, someone in possession of silk from India sounds adventurous or exotic, but the reality could be that the silk from India was actually shipped to America in a box full of packaging peanuts. Human minds naturally transfer observations into assumptions. Woolf sarcastically states in “A Room of One’s Own” that the “truth is only to be had by laying together many varieties of error” to bring…
